Seems like a well timed tribute to Lynott!

I will be there on Saturday night - think their first gig is tonight?? Ricky Warwick on vocals.

......guess who just got back today..........

Saw them years ago on the 'Live And Dangerous' tour,and also the previous tour which I can't remember the name of.

One in Stoke and one in Manchester.Both excellent.

Make sure you post a write up of the concert!

i'll be going to southampton.

Ricky will do a great job on vocals, don't worry about that.
The man is a legend as far as I am concerned!

Saw them at Reading University in 1975. Excellent.

I'll, er...

Bobby Tench (Thin Lizzy circa 1991) plays lead guitar for Alan Price once a month at the Bulls Head in Barnes. That's £12 well spent.

Okay, okay, I'm getting my coat already

Saw them last night in Newcastle!!


...they were........FANTASTIC..........Ricky Warwick does a fantastic job especially considering what he had to live up to ! Viv Campbell is outstanding - he plays all the songs beautifully.......and what can you say about Scott Gorham.......he hasn't lost it!....not one bit! They were tight, passionate, and they were enjoying it!!! It was one of the best gigs I have been to...ever. Highly recommended.

I think that this line-up has legs personally.

Seeing them on Saturday week at the Hammy Odeon thumbup

Funny to hear Ricky say that he screwed up a part of 'whiskey' .... which he's been playing since he was 2 hehe

Although, that all said, Philos 25th Vibe would have been much better to attend.

Ah dang.

Missed the fact that they were touring. I saw them many times first time round of course.

Now I tend to go see Limehouse Lizzy at places like The Standard in Walthamstow. Close your eyes, and they could be the originals. Mind you, pretty close with eyes open too!

i did it was very good, never really into Thin Lizzy until now.
I'm a real fan of Ricky Warwick and so have been interested in this project.
The Lizzy stuff is great and I can't believe it passed me by, and the documentuary last night put it all together.
Whiskey in a Jar is fantastic, off to I tunes now.

Ahhh...Thin Lizzy..the best lyric ever....

"Tonight there's going to be a jailbreak, somewhere in this town."

Well, I'm not an expert in crime prevention, but after giving it a lot of thought...my money is on the jail!!!
